Everything has a resonant frequency at which it vibrates like a tuning fork. Everything in your studio that vibrates contributes artifacts to your sound, so why would you let your monitors acoustically couple to a shelf, a rack, or the meter bridge of your mixing board?

MoPADs are affordable, easy to implement and really effective at decoupling your monitors from your room and all its contents. You've gotta get some!

This package includes four MoPADs, two for each monitor.

Once you’ve bought the best gear and acoustically treated your room, what’s left? Improving your monitors’ accuracy.
Your loudspeakers are the most critical components you use to verify the quality of your work.
No matter how good your mixer, mics, preamps, cables, and other pieces of gear that you’ve invested in, you’re not truly hearing what your recordings sound like until you isolate your monitors from their environment.

Everything in the world has a resonant frequency at which it vibrates like a tuning fork. This is why Auralex designs studios that are not only acoustically correct, but also constructed to be airtight and very, very solid. Everything in your studio that vibrates contributes artifacts to your sound, so why would you let your monitors acoustically couple to a shelf, a rack, or the meter bridge of your mixing board? Doing so automatically degrades the accuracy of what you’re hearing! And once your monitors cause whatever they’re resting on to vibrate, everything else that’s in physical contact with your monitors also starts to vibrate. Pretty soon you might as well be monitoring in one of those theme-park exhibits where they design the whole room to physically shake.

MoPADs are affordable, easy to implement and really effective at decoupling your monitors from your room and all its contents.

You’ve gotta get some! Until you do, you’ll never know what your recordings really sound like.
